Definitions

a dosage element to be consumed in use in a ware washing machine comprising first and second joined parts, wherein the first part is a part which, prior to joining with the second part, comprised an open receptacle and wherein the second part comprises a substrate carrying a plurality of substances arranged in side by side relation, and wherein the second part is joined to said first part so as to close said receptacle and enclose said substances within it.
Suitable the first part and the substrate of the second part are of water-soluble materials.
the plurality of substances are mutually separated on the substrate of the second part.
Suitable water-soluble polymeric materials for use in this invention are such that discs of 100 ⁇ m thickness and 30mm diameter dissolve in 5 litres of water maintained at 50°C, under gentle stirring, in less than 30 minutes.
amino acid based compounds according to the invention are MGDA (methyl-glycine-diacetic acid, and salts and derivatives thereof) and GLDA (glutamic-N, N- diacetic acid and salts and derivatives thereof) .
GLDA salts and derivatives thereof
Other suitable builders are described in US 6, 426, 229 which is incorporated by reference herein.
R , R , R , R , R independently of one another, denoting hydrogen, alkyl radicals having 1 to 12 ' C atoms or hydroxyl-substituted alkyl radicals having 2 to 3 C atoms.
a preferred example is tetrasodium imminosuccinate .
Polycarboxylates which comprise two carboxyl groups include, for example, water-soluble salts of, malonic acid, (ethylenedioxy) diacetic acid, maleic acid, diglycolic acid, tartaric acid, tartronic acid and fumaric acid.
Polycarboxylates which contain three carboxyl groups include, for example, water-soluble citrate.
a suitable hydroxycarboxylic acid is, for example, citric acid.
R 1 and R2 represent linear or branched chain, saturated or unsaturated, aliphatic or aromatic hydrocarbon groups with 1-30 carbon atoms
R represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, iso-propyl, n-butyl, 2-butyl or 2-methyl-2-butyl group
x is a value between 1 and 30 and
k and j are values between 1 and 12, preferably between 1 and 5.
Suitable sulfonated monomers for incorporation in sulfonated (co) polymers are 2-acrylamido-2-methyl-l-propanesulfonic acid, 2-methacrylamido-2-methyl-l-propanes ' ulfonic acid, 3- methacrylamido-2-hydroxy-propanesulfonic acid, allysulfonic acid, methallysulfonic acid, 2-hydroxy-3- (2- propenyloxy) propanesulfonic acid, 2-methyl-2-propenen-l- sulfonic acid, styrenesulfonic acid, vinylsulfonic acid, 3-sulfopropyl acrylate, 3-sulfopropylmethacrylate, sulfomethylacrylamide, sulfomethylmethacrylamide and water soluble salts thereof.
Suitable sulfonated polymers are also described in US 5308532 and in WO 2005/090541.
the detergent compositions of the invention may also comprise minor, conventional amounts of perfumes, preservatives and/or colourants. Such ingredients are typically present in amounts of up to 2%wt.
it may facilitate- manufacture to separate certain components, and thereby create a contrast between the first and second parts.
first and second parts may contrast in their properties for aesthetic reasons.
first and second parts an enzyme in one part and a bleach in another part; a corrosion inhibitor in one part and a bleach in another part; a corrosion inhibitor in one part and an enzyme in another part; an acid or a hydrolysable agent in one part and an alkalinity agent in another part; a solid (including a powder or a gel) in one part and a liquid in another part; a solid (including a powder or a gel) in one part and another solid (including a powder or a gel) in another part, to be kept apart, whether for chemical/functional reasons or aesthetic reasons; a liquid in one part and another liquid in another part, to be kept apart, whether for chemical/functional reasons or aesthetic reasons; a pre-wash formulation (including a ware washing machine cleaner, for example machine sanitizer and/or descaler) , in one part and a main wash formulation in another part; a main wash formulation in one part and a rinse aid formulation in another part.
a pre-wash formulation including a ware washing machine cleaner, for example machine
the dosage element as described above provides a very convenient and compact arrangement that is easy to manufacture, of attractive appearance and resistant to bending and other stress. It is an important advantage of this invention that the dosage element is stable and relatively stress-free and stress-resistant.
the spatial relationship of the substances means that they provide mutual support, and resistance to bending.
the dosage element is preferably made with spaces between the substances. This is convenient for manufacture, and the spaces collapse during assembly, leading to space efficiency and mutual support. Potential weak spots (which may be at corners or radiused portions of compartment walls) are supported against rupture, so reducing damage in handling or transit.
Figure 1 (a) is a schematic diagram showing a side view of parts of a multi-compartment container for a dosage element, this diagram shows the parts separated;
Figure 1 (b) is a schematic diagram showing the container of Figure l(a) as the parts are brought together;
the first part 10 typically comprises a water soluble receptacle which, when brought together with the second part 20 as shown in Figure l(b), and subsequently bonded to it, adds rigidity to the thereby formed dosage element.
the dosage element is consumed in a washing cycle, in the sense that at the end of cycle no part of it has to be removed, from the machine; indeed no part of it can be discerned, within the machine.
